Regina Spektor's Far

I've just listened to this CD for the forth time and I think that it is a very good CD. I absolutely love this woman's voice. The lyrics seem to have a deeper meaning but the music really lends itself to this idea. I really like the song Machine on this CD, it is powerful when you consider the imagery that is in the lyrics. With her being from Russia, she has seen a lot in her life and I feel that in listening to this song that she may have experienced much of what she is talking about.

Laughing With is another song I love off of this CD and it speaks a lot of truth, you don't hear people making fun of God or religion when ever they are nearest to death. In fact it seems to me that a lot of people are searching out hope when their demise seems imminent. This is just a few thoughts that I have on this CD.
